The Ceres girls recreational swim team moved to 3-1 in the MVSL standings after securing a split on Saturday at West High School in Tracy.

The Dolphins (565 points) beat the Tracy Tritons (422), but lost to the Ripon Sea Lions (610) during the tri-meet.

Ceres' boys team improved to 1-3.

The Dolphins (511) topped the Tritons (336).

Ceres was beaten by the Sea Lions (554).

"We didn't leave there disappointed," Dolphins head coach Tracy Bull said. "I knew it would be tough because we were missing 16 athletes. Overall, we had a lot of really good performances. For a large part of the day, we were leading. Then we got to the breaststroke. We couldn't close it out."
